OT: Rome: Total War Demo

Rome: Total War demo - Reviews and free downloads at Download.com

I've been watching the History Channel show, Decisive Battles, where they use this game to enact historic battles.

I want to play with the demo and see if this is a Buy or not...

Wow. Pretty cool.

I think it's a "buy" just cause it's pretty cool. The demo has a tutorial and one battle. It's not Battlefield, but then again, it's not supposed to be. If you want to be a General, then this is a game to look at.

Am going to play it a couple more times before I buy, since my CFO (aka my wife) has me on a strict Game Budget...
